Day of Imprisonment

#136 - Director Lin and I are good friends

"Oh, right, if you get hungry later, I'll send you another meal from the cafeteria." Luo Xi had gained a lot this time, and obviously, the [Basic Blood Drain] spell card might not have been acquired by any Reminiscent before him. They might not even know of the existence of this card.

"Okay!" The terrifying blood-drawing nurse's voice was filled with joy, but she immediately thought of something and said worriedly, "But I only have one gift. If you send me another meal, I won't have anything to repay you with."

"Don't say that. We can be considered acquaintances, and we get along well. We're friends. Why would a friend need a gift for a small favor?" Luo Xi still smiled brightly. "By the way, I still don't know your name."

"My name is Han Xiaoyan!"

"Good name. By the way, when do you get off work? I also know your colleague Zhao Xiaojuan. Let's all go to the cafeteria for dinner." Luo Xi obviously had ambitious goals, at least with the intention of emptying out the cafeteria's dishes.

"Get off work? Not anytime soon. I don't know when I can get off. I have to listen to the director. Besides, I lost my meal card." Han Xiaoyan was very sad and even shed tears.

"I'll help you look for it. Do you remember where you put it? Or tell me, do you remember the last time you saw your meal card, where was it?" Luo Xi guessed that this plot had a sequel, and the meal card might be a key.

Although Han Xiaoyan had already stated that she had no more 'gifts' in her hand, meaning that [Basic Blood Drain] could only be obtained once per cycle day.

However, discovering clues and then exploring them was Luo Xi's instinct.

He would want to do it even if there were no benefits.

Moreover, Luo Xi felt that if the meal card was a plot point, then there must be benefits, but of course, benefits would inevitably be accompanied by danger.

"I went to the morgue in the second ward before, and then I couldn't find my meal card. Maybe I lost it there," Han Xiaoyan said after recalling for a while.

"The morgue in the second ward?" Luo Xi noted it down.

Second Ward.

This echoed the information provided by Ke Lan.

Obviously, the second ward was a very crucial place.

Moreover, the morgue sounded dangerous just from its name, so the possibility of benefits was extremely high.

"I have to work now." Han Xiaoyan's tone was a little low, obviously, whether it was a person, a ghost, or an unknown monster, they didn't like working.

"Then I won't disturb you!" Luo Xi stood up at this time, but he suddenly thought of something and turned around to ask, "By the way, Xiaoyan, is your director surnamed Lin?"

Han Xiaoyan inside nodded, "Yes, it's Director Lin."

"Heh, I'm very familiar with Director Lin. We're good friends."

"Really? That would be great. Oh, I still don't know your name?"

"My name is Luo Xi."

"Luo Xi, if you help me with this, I'll owe you a favor. I'll do whatever you want me to do."

"Haha, I can't guarantee it, but I'll definitely do my best. Don't worry."

"Okay, okay, I'll wait for your news." Han Xiaoyan was very happy and even made a heart shape at Luo Xi.

Anyway, Ke Lan, Wu Rui, Qian Pangzi, and Liang Qiu, who saw this scene, were all dumbfounded, as if they had seen a ghost.

Until Luo Xi walked over and waved his hand in front of several people.

"What's wrong with you guys? Are you stupid?"

"No, Luo Ju, how can you chat with that nurse so seriously? I looked at her and my tongue went numb. I definitely couldn't say a complete sentence." Qian Pangzi looked admiring.

"It's very simple. Don't assume that they are enemies or monsters. You just need to know that they, like us, are innocent people imprisoned in this place."

No one could respond to Luo Xi's words.

At this time, Luo Xi's phone rang.

He looked at it and answered the phone.

It was Brother Mao calling.

Before, Luo Xi had everyone act separately. Qian Pangzi and Liang Qiu went to make the banner, he and Wu Rui went to draw blood, and Brother Mao and Guo Zening, Luo Xi asked them to do another examination, which was to take a CT scan.

For this kind of large-scale checkpoint scene, it was not enough for Luo Xi to explore it alone just in terms of time.

So he still had to rely on his companions to obtain more information.

"Luo Xi, we're in trouble." Brother Mao's voice was a little anxious. Based on Luo Xi's understanding of him, he definitely wouldn't make this call unless he was really in trouble.

"We're coming over right away." Luo Xi didn't waste any words.

He knew where the CT room was.

On the way, Qian Pangzi asked if the banner should be sent.

"Wait a minute, this banner is very useful now." Luo Xi could now confirm that the terrifying Director Lin in the First Hospital was definitely a very high-level existence, possibly a manager, or a member of the managers.

In this way, he could use the tiger's skin to make a big banner, and other medical staff would definitely not dare to disrespect Director Lin.

Holding the banner for Director Lin, all the medical staff would have to be wary.

Qian Pangzi's mind worked quickly, and he also realized Luo Xi's plan at this time.

"It's still you, Luo Ju. What we're playing in this place is a moment of life and death, it's courage, combat power, and luck... But Luo Ju is different, he's much more high-end!"

Liang Qiu, who was next to him and heard Qian Pangzi's words, asked curiously, "What is Luo Xi playing?"

"What Luo Ju is playing is, human relationships!" Qian Pangzi couldn't help but say, "From the beginning, Luo Ju has regarded this place as a 'real hospital', including the medical staff here, and regarded them as people with emotions and desires. Where there are people, there is a world. Where there is a world, you have to pay attention to human relationships. It's really amazing."

"Now that you know, you can play it this way too." Liang Qiu didn't think so. For a reckless man, nothing is as useful as strength and fists.

"I can't!" Qian Pangzi shook his head, "Neither can others. These monsters and ghosts are not fools either. If you don't act well, or if you mess up the acting, the consequences will be even more terrible... And more importantly, who can use this method and who can't, that's the key. For example, when encountering a faceless nurse, Luo Ju can tell whether the other party can be chatted with. If you choose the wrong one, the outcome is death."

In short, Qian Pangzi was holding the banner at this moment, and he felt very confident, just like an ancient eunuch who went to announce an imperial decree.

The CT room had arrived.

Brother Mao was pacing back and forth anxiously, and when he saw Luo Xi, he hurried forward.

"Guo Zening went in for an examination before, but he hasn't come out for more than ten minutes. I asked the doctor here, and they said that they had to take more films... But I feel something is wrong, and not only Guo Zening hasn't come out, but other Reminiscent who went in before and after him also haven't come out. I inquired and found out that taking a CT scan may result in a full-body fracture."

Taking a film and getting a full-body fracture? That's outrageous.

But in the First Hospital, nothing is too outrageous.

In fact, the CT room is in a very peculiar state. According to Ke Lan and Liang Qiu, there seems to be danger here, but it is different from other places. Not every patient who comes here for an examination will encounter danger.

According to the experience summarized by the Reminiscent, the danger here appears randomly.

Generally, out of ten examinations, you will encounter danger three times.

But it's not life-threatening, it's just that people go in standing and come out lying down, because after taking the film, they will give a conclusion of 'full-body comminuted fracture'.

Not only the examination results, but in fact, the Reminiscent who went in for the examination would also encounter the exact same situation as this result.

Full-body fracture.

Indeed, they didn't die, but it was no different from death.

In the past, some people had tried, but other than getting the consequence of a full-body fracture, there were no discoveries.

And the Reminiscent with a full-body fracture would generally be killed by their companions.

This was the best outcome.

Otherwise, if other Reminiscent caught them, they would definitely be eaten clean, and they would become amnesiacs even after death.

Luo Xi had asked Brother Mao and Guo Zening to come before, also to see if they could make a breakthrough in the known information.

Looking at the several Memory Retrievers in the waiting area, it was clear that Luo Xi and the others weren't the only ones with the same idea.

"Let's go take a look."

Walking closer, Luo Xi observed the metal door that separated the examination room. A line was drawn on the floor outside the door to mark a safety zone. Inside the observation room, faceless nurses were staring at the screen, but due to the angle, they couldn't see what was on it.

Two faceless nurses stood at the door.

They wouldn't allow anyone to interfere with the doctor's work.

If you asked, there was only one answer.

"Please wait, the patient has not finished the examination yet."

They were still very polite, but if you tried to force your way in, these two seemingly weak faceless nurses would teach you a lesson in minutes.

First, they would beat you up, and then call security to drag you away.

Why drag you away?

Because all your limbs would be broken.

This had happened once, and no other Memory Retriever dared to try it again. So, no matter how anxious they were, they could only stand obediently outside the yellow line and wait.

"It seems like there's no way this time either. It's strange, what's the secret of this CT room? Why haven't we been able to figure it out after so many loops?" A Memory Retriever at the door looked grave, with a hint of helplessness.

"Only those who are diagnosed with a real fracture by the outpatient doctor, and who have survived the initial diagnosis risk, can be arranged to come here for a CT scan. And, only the patient can enter. Most of the time, the examinations inside are normal, and they will really take a CT scan and print out the results. But there are also these overtime situations. When an overtime situation occurs, it means that the patient will eventually suffer a full-body fracture. We even tried sending in powerful experts, but the result was still a full-body fracture."

"According to the Memory Retrievers who went in, the whole process is very normal. They lie on the examination bed, waiting for the machine to scan, and then suddenly feel a sharp pain all over their body, as if an invisible hand is crushing every bone in their body."

"This process is impossible to resist. No matter how strong you are, you can't move. This is what makes it unsolvable."

Several Memory Retrievers complained, also probing each other to see if they knew more information.

Saying these things was just a way to fish for information.

Hearing this, Luo Xi moved a little closer and listened carefully.

"Has anyone tried using cards inside?"

"No, no cards can be activated inside, including items, spells, curses, and creatures. It seems that the equipment inside has radiation."

"Damn it, there must be treasure in this place."

"Everyone can guess that, but the problem is, how to get it? Apart from strictly following the procedure for examination, we can't do anything. It's really frustrating."

"It would be better if some ghosts or something came out, or if the doctor inside went crazy and started killing people. But to outsiders, everything seems normal."

The Memory Retrievers waiting outside were discussing enthusiastically. There were quite a few people, roughly a dozen or so, so Luo Xi and his group didn't attract too much attention when they joined in.

"Then has anyone tried wearing some metal sheets inside, using this method to affect the operation of the CT equipment and create electromagnetic interference...?" Luo Xi said, squeezing into the crowd naturally.

"Tried it, it's useless. Last time I had someone specially make a metal lining, but it was useless."

"Full-body fracture, that's going to cause trouble!" Luo Xi continued.

"Cause trouble? Are you new here? Who dares to cause trouble in the First Hospital? Do you think those faceless security guards are just for show?" Someone glanced at Luo Xi, and then said: "And do you think no one has caused trouble before? I'm telling you, someone causes trouble every loop day, and they use all kinds of methods. For example, running to other doctors to report, but they say it's not within their jurisdiction and they don't care. Some people also shout loudly, but the result is that they are killed by security guards. Some people even want to find the dean, but no one knows where the dean's office is in this First Hospital."

"Get it now? This thing is unsolvable."

Luo Xi nodded.

He didn't argue.

Everyone was not stupid. Obviously, they also saw that if a patient suffered a full-body fracture in this CT room, it must represent some kind of 'omen', like a symbol, a label, representing that a new plot could be expanded.

That's why they came to try every loop day.

It's just that their methods and directions were wrong, so they haven't been able to figure it out.

However, based on the information Luo Xi currently had, the direction of many Memory Retrievers was not wrong.

Because this obviously belonged to a 'medical accident'.

It's just that no one had found the correct 'response' channel.

Talking to the security guards was useless.

Talking to unrelated doctors and nurses was the same.

And Luo Xi immediately thought of the most terrifying existence he had seen in the hospital so far.

Director Lin!

So, to report a medical accident, you have to find the right contact person.

Thinking of this, Luo Xi retreated.

"What do we do now?" Mao Ge was still very anxious. After all, he and Guo Zening had come together.

"We wait!" Luo Xi said.

"Wait? Wait for what?" Mao Ge didn't understand.

"Wait for Guo Zening to suffer a full-body fracture."

"Ah?"

This time, not only Mao Ge, but the others were also stunned.

The quickest to react were Qian Fatty and Ke Lan.

Ke Lan was because he had a good brain, and Qian Fatty was because he saw the banner in Luo Xi's hand, plus the last time he shouted to complain, which attracted Director Lin.

"Luo Ju, are you saying that this time we are still..."

"Just know it, but not too early, you have to determine that Guo Zening has a full-body fracture before you can do it. This time, he is suffering, but if he gets [Healing], it should be able to heal him directly." Luo Xi had no choice.

Sometimes, to get something, you have to pay a corresponding price.

In fact, even if Guo Zening suffered a full-body fracture, even if they had [Healing] in their hands, they might not use it on Guo Zening.

The reason was also very realistic.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and there were less than three hours before the end of this loop day, so using [Healing] in this situation was a complete waste.

But it was too early to say whether to use it or not. Guo Zening might not suffer a full-body fracture, and they hadn't even obtained the [Healing] card yet, or even triggered the plot task.

After waiting for another ten minutes.

The door opened.

"It's open!"

"Someone's coming out!"

Everyone immediately surrounded them.

What they saw was that several Memory Retrievers walked out with strange expressions. It seemed that there was no problem. Guo Zening was among them.

Seeing Luo Xi and the others, he hurried over.

"How is it, any fractures?" Qian Fatty asked first.

"I don't, but someone has a fracture." Guo Ze said truthfully. Inside, he heard someone scream miserably, but he didn't dare to move at the time, and he couldn't move. He also couldn't see.

He only knew that a long time had passed.

Luo Xi looked over and found that this time two people were carried out.

One fainted, and one was humming in pain. It wasn't that he didn't want to scream, but he didn't have the strength.

The one with the full-body fracture was not one of their own.

Luo Xi frowned, then he walked over and looked at the two fainted Memory Retrievers and their companions, took a deep breath, changed his face, and cursed loudly.

"What a trash hospital, what a bullshit doctor, treating my brother like this, he's useless, damn it, I want to complain!"

The voice was very loud. The faceless doctors and nurses hadn't reacted yet. A group of Memory Retrievers were already numb with fear, and then subconsciously avoided them, leaving Luo Xi and the unlucky guy with the full-body fracture alone.

A circle around Luo Xi was empty.

The thoughts of these Memory Retrievers were also very simple. When this guy was torn to pieces later, don't let them get splattered with blood.

The faceless doctors and nurses rushed forward angrily at this time, and in the distance, security guards were running towards them.

Danger was coming.

But Luo Xi shouted again: "Director Lin and I are good friends. According to Article 4 of the hospital's complaint rules, I want to complain!"
